Lance has been FAST

Very interesting.  I had a discussion in Florida this year with a well know team crew chief about dynamic weight flow, what might be a new trend in corner weights and about keeping all four tires on the track and using them per weight flow.  I expressed my thoughts on a particular team about weight out and how I think they are using it towards enhancing left front tire function.

 

Long story short and leaving out details he told me he most admired how the Lance DeWease car was the best of the best in using all four tires.  It's not all about setup or driver it's about giving a setup matched to a particular situation to a great driver. 

 

My opinion on what driver is best able to feel how especially his rear tires are working is Brad Sweet.  If he would just quit racing racers for the sake of his position in the pecking order and use his car as I see he is able to use it, he will become the champ this year besting all.
